Being a photographer is the best, and most inspiring, job I can think of ever having. I am a professional photographer. Very much a food photographer, working with the Swedish Culinary Teams. Seniors and Juniors. Among many nice clients. Until today I have photographed 14 cook books. Many awarded. Photography is not only my profession, it is also my passion.
I celebrate that today, on this very day 41 years ago, I photographed Chet Baker at the Fasching Jazzclub here in Stockholm. Some of those images can be seen at my exhibition at Fasching today and until April. I have added the review at the bottom, to be read in Swedish.
Fasching is at Kungsgatan 63, Stockholm
I haven´t posted anything here for a very long time. Perhaps today´s post will be a change for the better.
Well, who does n´t? I have just spent a few in the city attending the Gourmand World Cookbook Summit. Spring happened to be there too. Always inspiring. Of course I managed to get some pictures from the Eiffel Tower. Here is a small selection for you.
Only one image is made with my phone…
It has been too long since I last wrote here and showed some images. It will not take that long before next time. More from Paris coming up.
These images could be selected for the 2019 calender. A project I have made for about 20 years together with my dear friend Peter Schaeublin in Schaffhaussen, Switzerland. And the Stamm printers. The calendar has always been a giveaway and is not for sale.
A week ago I went fishing with friends in Norway. Not a rod in sight. I am usually not going around with a camera just in case, but this was different.
Said by Harrison Salisbury about David Douglas Duncan. A life in photography. This is fantastic reading from Washington Post with many great links for more interesting material.
Horses and jockeys, off course. But there would be no races without starters. They assist the jockeys in loading the horses into the boxes and they help calming some nervous horses. Here are e few images from yesterdays races, and some of the starters at Bro Park. It is always such an inspiration to go there.
A friend just sent me this article about another classic image many thought, for good reasons, was made by Hine. A great story. He found it in The New York Times.
